Looks like a nice enough set. Except maybe for the horse, although I have seen worse.

The Chinese forms are due to machine translation from the Chinese product advertisements; I expect the Japanese versions will be revealed soon enough when stores start to post preorder information -- in fact it appears to be there already: Tomoe Gozen.

If you scroll down, you’ll find some comparison photos that show a real horse’s head, eye, and nose shape which explains at least a little of why this one seems so ‘off’. There are anatomical issues with the body and hooves, but those are not nearly as bad as in some 1/6 horses I’ve seen. The most egregious issues in my opinion are the headsculpt and the pose, which is unrealistic to a real horse’s walking gait or standing position.

There has yet to be an equivalent Mr.Z horse in this particular style (tall, grey, with long mane, etc), but there was the Yili horse ( sadly sold out now), and the somewhat smaller Hanoverian horse (which, while not 100% perfect is a far cry more realistic looking than the PopToys horse).

I don't know much about horses and i was thinking of getting the war horse of Jeanne D'Arc, particularly because of the armor.

Like I wrote, I've seen worse -- I forget the details at this point, but I believe it was discussed in one or two other threads, probably the Jeanne d'Arc one. There is something about the size and position of the head and also perhaps the overall overly-neat effect. This horse can do very well in a romantic fairytale setting, but doesn't seem very realistic, unlike (for example) the Mr Z products, and realism in 1/6 scale has always been pretty important to me. But in an instance like this, if a product "works" for you, you should not let others' preferences dissuade you. My favorite horse is the Mr Z Hanoverian, yet there is something a little atypical about its stance; but since it doesn't bother me much, it works for me.
